Anabolic Steroids: an evolving black market - YouTube

Anyone that is buying AAS from non-pharmaceutical sources should be aware of the quality and contamination risks.

The speaker is William Llewellyn, he's written Anabolics 2006 and 2009.

Do you have a question?

[mattvdh]

That's an odd reply.

[austinite]

That's an odd reply.

What's odd, is posting a video in the Questions forum.

[Tron3219]

That's an odd reply.

Considering you're in the Q&A forum, it is not. Best suited for the lounge...

[mietek]

this is a surprise, I will never buy again.

Old news homeslice

[mattvdh]

it makes me wonder why someone would take the risk of buying from a sketchy source and guinea pigging themselves. I guess its no different than someone buying any other street drug.

Interesting video... best to get pharma grade

Yeah if you can find it. You'd really need to have your gear tested at a lab to verify the purity and to see if there's any contamination, or if you're a chemist and have the necessary equipment to DIY.

As it is said 1000s of times, either trust your source or dont buy. Even if you make your own there are risks involved with purity as well as getting 100% fake.

[Honkey_Kong]

Who ever actually thought the drugs they bought on the black market posed no risks though? We all know there is a risk involved in buying illegal drugs, we can try our best to minimize it, but that risk will always exist.

A little common sense never hurts. Some folks are just too dense to figure this out.

Actually there is less risk (unless you believe the media) and less deaths caused by black market drugs than most any prescription FDA approved drug. Right?

Uhhhhh yeah... okay...

I've got some good pyramid investment opportunities. Interested?

on a side note: Austin, that waffle cone breyers is really freaking good ice cream!

I should have said more people die daily from FDA approved medications.

Oh shit lol

I like the blue bunny triple chocolate cake

[Honkey_Kong]

Yeah they do. But I think a lot of that is due to our society becoming one of those "I've got a pill for everything" societies. A lot of those deaths are caused by people that get hooked on the FDA approved medication and end up abusing them.

And I also don't think the FDA is that great of an agency when it comes to safety with all these drugs on the market. When a pharmaceutical company is a $billion in on a drug, they're going to put pressure on the government to approve their drugs.

[thisAngelBites]

There are over 100,000 deaths a year due to properly prescribed, properly administered drugs.

Yeah they do. But I think a lot of that is due to our society becoming one of those "I've got a pill for everything" societies. A lot of those deaths are caused by people that get hooked on the FDA approved medication and end up abusing them.

Heck yes it is.

Well rather than blindly putting faith or trust in a 3rd party source, why not have it tested or acquire the necessary equipment to test for purity and containments. According to the data presented in the video, a great percentage of the tested AAS's had all kinds of cancer causing agents in them. If your source is a really good friend and you've seen that it's a sterile environment with your own eyes then it's probably good to go, but I would suspect that most people don't personally know how it was made. Do whatever you want, I could care less, just saying that it's probably a good idea to learn how to test it before using.

LOL. Let me run to the bank and withdraw 100 grand for a decent mass spec machine.

Where is the common sense in this post? Figure out what? How can you be so sure of what you're using.

Well if you can find a source to manufacture it, you can find a source to have it tested.

Common sense in that assuming UGL gear is not pure. I know what I'm using exactly, I pick it up at the pharmacy after they verify my prescription.

Yeah................. the folks sending junk powder from China, let's ask them to test it. Are you even remotely serious?

This video isn't directed at you if you're getting it from a pharmacy, however I would assume that most aren't.

Oh geez

Get some gear from mars then analize it with the analizer < Done deal, 101% Purity every time
